Information on the situation for homosexuals
in Anguilla:
Illegal
I have not been able to find
much on homosexuality in Anguila. Though being a British territory, homosexuality
is a criminal offense. It seems to be a conservative place with nude and
topless swimming and sunbathing prohibited. No swimsuits are allowed in
public areas! Soon the anti-homosexual laws may have to change, as Britain
is putting pressure on all its few remaining colonies to follow British
international treaties.
Discovered by Christopher
Columbus in 1493, Anguilla was made a British
colony in 1650. It is a
British Dependent Territory with internal self-government. Tourism and
British aid are important to the economy.
If you have any further
information on the current situation in Anguilla, please contact
